A batch / job lot of genuine vintage knitting / crochet yarn. 6 SKEINS.
VERY SCARCE.
Unbranded.
A cool silky yarn. Relatively heavy. Crepe finish.
I'm not certain about the exact composition but it's believed to be an early rayon/viscose yarn (which became popular during the 1920s / 1930s).
An attractive shade of apple green. Not a pale pastel shade, more vibrant than that, but not an 'acidic' shade either. Please note that it has proved difficult to reproduce the colour totally accurately in the photos.
6 skeins. Total weight: approx. 640g
Unfortunately I don't know the thickness or yardage.
There are currently elastic bands on most of the skeins to stop the yarn tangling. It would probably be advisable to remove these if you are going to store the yarn for any length of time (in case the bands degrade and stain the yarn) and find some other means of stopping the yarn tangling. Two of the skeins have already started to unravel quite a bit and it would be advisable to re-wind or secure these fairly soon to stop them tangling further.
This listing is for ALL SIX SKEINS. Regrettably I am unable to split job lots.
For condition please see above and please look at photos.
They are UNUSED but I have marked them as 'used' because they have been in storage for a long time and because some skeins have started to unravel.
Please note that it has proved difficult to reproduce the colour totally accurately in the photos.
I have estimated the shipping costs. If I find that I have grossly over-estimated the shipping charges (after allowing a small amount for packaging) I will, of course, refund the difference
Any questions, please feel free to ask
RETURNS ACCEPTED ON THIS ITEM (please see Terms and Conditions below)

GENERAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS:
PLEASE NOTE:
My goods come from a smoke-free home.
However, I do have a dog. Although the majority of my textile items are
laundered before selling – and I endeavour to keep my dog away from any items
that I am selling – please be aware of this if you are acutely allergic to
animals.
Although I make every effort to take accurate photographs, please be aware
before bidding that, due to the limitations of digital photography and
variations between computer browsers, it is impossible to reproduce
colours totally accurately on computer screens. If I feel that the original
colours diverge greatly from those shown I will allude to this in the
description.
Postage and Packing:
Please refer to the listing description for details
of delivery methods and charges. Items that sell for more than £20 are
usually (though not always) sent via a Signed For service (or, if sent
overseas, via the ‘International Signed For’ service) and will require a
signature on receipt.
I am happy to combine postage costs on multiple purchases (providing the
auctions finish within 5 days of each other and you do not pay for any of the
items until you have finished bidding on all of them – and, of course,
providing it is safe and practicable to send the items within the same
package). If you are still bidding on any of my other items, please let me know
when you have finished bidding and I will send you a combined
invoice. Please note however that if the combined value of the
package is more than £20, 'Signed For' or ‘Special Delivery’ costs (as
applicable - or ‘International Signed For’ costs if sending overseas) will need
to be taken into consideration before calculating the combined shipping
discount.
If your goods are damaged on receipt, please notify me
immediately and retain the original packaging for possible inspection by Royal
Mail in the event of a claim.
RETURNS:
Returns accepted in most instances. There may be a
few instances from time to time where returns are not accepted, so please
consult the listing for clarification.
Please notify me of your intention to return the goods as soon as
possible and please then return the goods in the same condition as you received
them (e.g. still unworn/unused if the items are new, with original tags still
intact etc) and in the same – or equivalent - packaging within 30 days of
receipt.
The refund is dependent on the safe receipt of the goods by me so you are
advised to use a fully insured method of delivery and to package
securely.
Return postage costs are the buyer’s responsibility.
OVERSEAS BUYERS: please
contact me before bidding/purchasing for details of international shipping
costs/methods of delivery (if not already stated in the listing). Items valued
at less than £20 will normally be sent via Airmail, with more valuable
items usually (though not always) being sent via Royal Mail’s ‘International
Signed For’ service. The method of shipping will normally be stated in the
listing. If you require further clarification, please feel free to contact me.
Please note that you, the buyer, are responsible for all customs/import
duties and fees in your own country (plus any related handling charges).
Combined Shipping / Returns / Goods Lost or Damaged in Transit: same Terms and
Conditions as for UK buyers (please see above)
